Ouch!

What’s going on?

Oof. We’ve fallen so far, so fast.

I guess someone should pass this list on to Bill Maher who seems to have been conned badly. He can’t explain why, if he’s really such a charming guy, he acts so badly?

If it is the one thing that is evident about this administration is it’s cruelty. Steven Miller has been let loose and they hired like- minded deviants to create fear and devastation in migrant families.

Equality hurts no one!

#HandsOff Dallas

Awful.

It can’t be said enough how right Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris were. About everything.

Do you think that screwing in tiny screws is the future that Americans dreamed of for their children when they voted for you dip heads?

It’s not just that they fundamentally misunderstand basic economics, but that they also want to live a fantasy where they make $200k working at a toaster-making factory while their stay-at-home wife makes dinner for them in the suburbs and cares for their 4 children.

Japanese American National Museum takes a stand against DOGE cuts to NEH The National Endowment for the Humanities warned museums across the country that it was slashing funding, including money previously pledged to places such as LACMA and the Japanese American National ...

Can we get more of this? “The Japanese American National Museum will ‘scrub nothing,’ Fujioka said, and instead will highlight the importance of DEI.

“Our community is based on diversity, equity is guaranteed to us in the Constitution, and inclusion is what we believe in,” Fujioka said.

San Francisco gets an A+ for presentation and form.

When you feel it is too dangerous to speak out … it has already gone too far.
We should not live in fear of our leaders.

Long story. Mainly because the person put a value on them based on the prohibitive cost of shipping charges (should they get lost). It was a handling charge not duty.

Despite being duty free in Jamaica. We had to spend $11,000 to get 3 books that a friend sent from the UK via FedEx.

I suspect that Amy CB is hedging her bets on how many times she can buck Trump before she becomes a target.

The court is the only standing shield and they are caving to this rampage against fairness.

Well said. Thank you.

Yes, he was particularly impressive today. I also took note of his strength and focus.

Do we know yet, the full list of demands that will be made of our small independent nations?

A group of Caribbean leaders lined up for a photo op, with a row of flags and a banner saying "CARICOM" behind them.

The Caribbean Community (CARICOM) met virtually ahead of face-to-face talks with US SecState Marco Rubio in #Jamaica on Wednesday. #Barbados Prime Minister Mia Mottley, who is CARICOM chair, and her #Trinidad counterpart "spoke together on Thursday morning, sharing ideas” ahead of the LONG meeting.

No caving… so many people are caving.

If you disagree with the govt. you can be accused of being anti- American. How can. It be wrong to defend people’s rights?

0 tolerance of dissent = contempt.

Deflection. Always, when he is doing something wrong he tries to find something someone else did wrong to distract us with.

It’s borderline criminal.

Alina Habba tweeted ‘Nothing can ever stop this man from fighting for our country’! David Simon replied with ‘Bone spurs’.

This is next level! 💥

How long does it take them to start saying preposterous things with a straight face.

A reminder for these times.

Musk Scandal at USAID Takes Ugly Turn, Putting Starving Kids at Risk Two U.S. nonprofits that manufacture a treatment sent by USAID to help severely malnourished children abroad say the process is in chaos. This isn’t what Marco Rubio said would happen.

Awful news --> Delivery of therapeutic food assistance to nearly 400,000 severely malnourished kids abroad is suddenly in doubt due to Trump-Musk firings at USAID, two manufacturers of the product tell me.

"Starving children are waiting," one says.

Thank you for all you do.

Brava!

We will miss Joy. So sad to see her go.
